Here at Inside Decors, we have partnerships with top interior design and home decor brands. Each has its own shipping policy.

Chita Living

At CHITA, we take pride in the manufacturing of our furniture. It is our goal to deliver your purchase to you as quickly and efficiently as possible. All our products are fully packaged for safe transit and will be handled by professional third-party delivery carriers.

We work with multiple specialist delivery partners to ensure your order reaches you safely and on time. This may result in your order having multiple shipments from separate delivery partners. Kindly note that the shipping cost is calculated per shipment (not per total order), based on the warehouse location that your product(s) is shipped from. Speed of delivery depends on the type of product, product availability, and proximity to Metropolitan areas. 

We do not deliver to Alaska, Hawaii, North Dakota, South Dakota, Puerto Rico, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, U.S. Virgin Islands, Marshall Islands, PO boxes, or APO/FPO military addresses.

All shipments are delivered Monday through Saturday between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. If you wish to request to see if the non-specified hours are possible for your area, please contact us before your order has been processed. Kindly note that not all requests can be fulfilled.

Please note that it is your responsibility to check that your items will fit through doors, staircases, and elevators in their packaging before you place your order. Product and package dimensions are included in the product description on our website. Failed delivery due to our inability to access your home will result in additional delivery charges.

Please note that while we may be able to have your order shipped to a freight forwarder, once the shipment is in their hands, CHITA is released of all responsibility for issues that may arise during and as a result of the freight forwarding process.

SHIPPING FEES AND LOCATIONS

Shipping fees are charged per shipment, not per order, and are fixed at flat rates depending on shipment value as well as delivery location.

A friendly reminder that for orders with multiple items, depending on each item’s estimated delivery date, there may be multiple shipments per order. Shipping fees are calculated based on your location and order subtotal. Total shipping fees charged will be indicated during the checkout process after processing the number of shipments required based on the estimated delivery of all your items.

In the event that an exchange for the defective piece cannot be arranged, CHITA reserves the right to offer a substitute or full refund. All repair or replacement of item(s) will depend on inventory availability. CHITA shall not be liable for any consequences (whether direct or indirect) of the delay in the delivery of the goods, and no such delay shall entitle the customer to treat this agreement as being repudiated by CHITA or to any comparison.

SIGNING OF PROOF OF DELIVERY RECEIPT (POD)

A POD is not simply a receipt of delivery but an acknowledgment that the goods arrived intact. All too often, PODs are signed without inspecting your delivery.

We advise confirming that the shipment was intended for you, that the entire order has been delivered, and that it was delivered undamaged.

Anything not indicated on this form before your signature will result in CHITA being unable to authorize any damage claims after your driver has left.

Please follow this checklist we have created for you to follow before the Point of Delivery (POD) is signed:

Checklist:

1. Please check all cartons for visible damage.
2. Please confirm you have received the correct items as per the POD and the delivery order.
3. If you have White Glove delivery: Please wait until all items have been assembled and there is no visible damage to the items. Then sign off on POD.
4. If there is serious damage to a carton please check whether the product is damaged.
5. If there is damage: Please take photos of the damage, cartons and product ID code.
6. Please indicate any property damage caused by delivery on the POD. We will need to photos and video footage of the damage occurring to document the damage. 

After you’ve gone through your entire shipment and documented any issues, you may obtain the driver’s signature or initials next to your notes about the damaged items on the POD.

*Please do not dispose cartons until the issue is resolved.

ESTIMATED DELIVERY DATE

The “Estimated Delivery” lead times shown on each product page indicate the estimated date range in which you can expect the item to arrive at your delivery location. This lead time includes time taken for stock movement from manufacturing locations to our warehouse (this includes factors such as whether an item is made-to-order) and last-mile delivery to your door.

Please note that these dates are an estimate and may be subject to potential unforeseen delays.

SCHEDULING AND TRACKING OF SHIPMENTS

You will receive an email notification when your order has left our local warehouse.

For delivery by FedEx or UPS, you will be provided with the tracking information in the email.

For deliveries by our specialized carriers, you will be contacted directly by the carrier to confirm a delivery date and timeframe.

DELAYED SHIPMENT / DELIVERY DUE TO UNFORESEEN SITUATIONS

In the event of a delay in shipment due to unforeseen situations, CHITA reserves the right to reschedule the delivery, subject to the availability of the next open delivery date.

No specific time of delivery can be provided. A time frame will be advised but cannot be guaranteed. CHITA shall not be liable for any consequences, any loss suffered, or any expenses incurred (whether direct or indirect) due to the delay in the shipment or delivery of the goods, and no such delay shall entitle the customer to treat this agreement as being repudiated by CHITA or to any comparison.

Waiting Time:

Our delivery partners will confirm delivery time frames with you 24 hours prior to the scheduled delivery time and 30 minutes prior to arrival. However, if the customer is not at home upon arrival, the delivery team will notify the customer of his arrival. If the customer requests that the delivery team wait until he/she reaches his/her home, the team will wait for 15 minutes at no additional cost.

DELIVERY RESTRICTIONS

We reserve the right to refuse delivery to specific locations for items we deem at high risk of loss or damage, as well as areas that are inaccessible for our home delivery services.

We cannot deliver to PO boxes or Parcel Lockers because they’re usually too small to accept most of the items we sell.

KitchenAid

IN-HOME DELIVERY

We deliver products big and small with our authorized delivery team or other standard shipping methods. Our in-home delivery service handles large appliances too big for standard shipping carriers. If you purchased parts and accessories with a large appliance, we’ll try to deliver those items together.

INSTALLATION

PREP YOUR SPACE BEFORE YOUR APPLIANCE ARRIVES

1. WAYS TO PREPARE

If you selected installation at checkout, we’ll supply the parts needed to get your appliance installed. If you’re installing yourself, make sure you have the right parts and hookups (our checkout will identify compatible parts if you need to purchase them).

Be sure to measure your home so your appliance fits through each hall and doorway and fits in your space. Installation fees include basic installation, but not things like new connections or cabinetry modifications.

2. INSPECT YOUR SPACE

Check for proper plumbing and correct water lines for products like dishwashers or refrigerators with a water dispenser. Ensure there are nearby electrical outlets that fit your new appliance plug.

If you do not have proper plumbing or outlets, the installation fee will not be waived. Deliveries above the 5th floor will only be made with a working elevator.

3. MAP OUT A PATH OF ENTRY

• Measure the width of each doorway, hallway and stairwell the product may pass through.
• If necessary, your delivery crew will remove your exterior doors (hinge pins) to gain access.
• Make sure the pathway is clear of personal items, including tables or furniture that may get in the way.
• We won’t remove interior doors, handrails, banisters, screen doors or any personal possessions.

4. MEASURE YOUR CUTOUT

• Measure height, width and depth of your space to ensure the dimensions of your product match.
• Some products will need some breathing room for venting, hookups and to allow doors to open. For example, refrigerators require an additional ½” on each side for venting.
• Cabinet modifications will not be made.

DOING THE INSTALLATION YOURSELF?

1. Be sure you have the right parts.
2. If you’re installing yourself, installation parts are sold separately. Our checkout will help identify compatible parts.
3. Please be sure to consult the owner’s manual before attempting installation.
